Estrela Santiago, Cape Verde

Estrela Santiago is a spectacular five-star lifestyle and leisure resort on the sheltered south coast of the main island of Santiago. 

Laid out on two thousand acres of pristine landscape, the resort encompasses five kilometres of unspoilt coastline. The development includes residential property, hotels, five-star facilities and a stunning Faldo-designed golf course.

The HED landscape masterplan for the whole resort along with the design of three five star hotels and associated villas, draws heavily on the island's distinctive volcanic origins and unique mid-Atlantic heritage, with its own rhythm.
